Fantastic experience: Dr.Koshgerian and his staff were superb. By far, the best dental experience I have ever had and I have a mouth full of crowns from 20 years ago, so I have plenty of experience with dentists and oral surgeons. Dr. Koshgerian went above and beyond to see that my care was something that would benefit my oral health beyond just the work that needed to be done. Great experience.
Positive feedback is always appreciated. Thank you for the review!
Fantastic experience: I had my wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Shelton and his oral surgery team, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff made everything feel easy, calm, and seamless—I truly felt like a five-star client. Dr. Shelton was professional, reassuring, and made the entire process feel stress-free. What really stood out was the exceptional follow-up care. After I got home, I received messages with clear guidance on recovery expectations and next steps. While I did receive a paper with post-op instructions, I really appreciated also being sent a video version by text/email. Having the option to watch the instructions instead of reading them made everything so much easier and more reassuring during recovery. I’m incredibly grateful I was referred to Dr. Shelton and his team. If you’re looking for an oral surgeon who is thorough, compassionate, and truly goes above and beyond for their patients, I highly recommend them.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. Kind words are always appreciated!

Fantastic experience: Dr Koshgerian is an amazing oral surgeon. I’ve had several implants, and one extraction done at his office -all painless! Never had any issues or problems with any of the dental procedures I’ve had here. I can’t recommend Dr Koshgerian enough-he is a great surgeon. He and the staff have great bedside manner, the latest technology and will explain the process and procedures to the patient. Frankly, I love the place, haha.
We are so glad to hear that you had a great experience with us. Thank you for the wonderful review!

Fantastic experience: I’m posting this review for my mom Carolynn Wolflick. She’s 94 and had to have four teeth extracted And a bone graft done. As you can imagine we were all pretty anxious about the procedure. But every staff member every Tech and Dr. Shelton were perfection. She’s on blood thinners and had very little bleeding. Was eating that day soft foods. Was even asking for a cookie which I had to deny her. I can’t thank them enough and would refer them over and over and over again, especially with your most precious cargo, you’re 94-year-old mother.
Positive feedback is always appreciated. Thank you for the review!
Fantastic experience: The entire staff was amazing! Dental procedures can be traumatizing to many and Dr.Shelton and team exude confidence and calm which calmed me through the entire process and I thank you.

Positive feedback is always appreciated. Thank you for the review!
Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough great things about Dr. Koshgerian and his entire office. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. Everything was explained clearly and thoroughly, and at no point did I feel pressured or “sold” on anything. They were honest, informative, and upfront — including giving me the exact cost after insurance, which I truly appreciated. The day of the procedure was smooth and seamless. All four wisdom teeth were removed efficiently, and the staff made sure I felt comfortable and at ease the entire time. Now on Day 2 of recovery, I’ve had zero issues and feel great. This office is professional, caring, and incredibly well-run. I couldn’t recommend Dr. Koshgerian more highly and have already referred a friend without hesitation.
We appreciate your kind words and remain committed to providing excellent care and service!

Feedback is always welcome by our Practice as we are committed to exceptional care and service for everyone we serve!
Fantastic experience: Extraction of molars is often difficult. Dr Koshgerian makes it an easy experience. It was removed quickly and not traumatic. The next day I felt no pain or swelling. He's also done a number of implanrs.
Thank you for the kind words. Positive feedback is always encouraging!
Fantastic experience: Incredibly comfortable and professional atmosphere. Everybody involved deserves top ratings!
We appreciate your kind words and remain committed to providing excellent care and service!
Positive experience: I needed initial oral surgery to treat an infection and a failed implant. At the same time, two additional implants were placed with bone grafts. One implant required a sinus lift. The surgery was throughly explained and all questions were answered. My anesthesia was excellent, I felt no pain. My follow-up care was excellent, and my recovery went smoothly. Four months later, I had a second oral surgery. Two additional implants were placed with bone grafts. My experience was the same as the first. This office is extremely professional and highly skilled. If oral surgery is needed, I highly recommend this practice.
We are so glad to hear that you had a great experience with us. Thank you for the recommendation!
Fantastic experience: Dr. Shelton is an exceptional Oral Surgeon. He made my son very comfortable with the procedure. My son was very confident with him and as he described " Dr. soft hands" . Dr. Shelton is very compassionate and explained everything from start to finish. I would definitely recommend him and his team. They treated my son like he was a VIP patient for his procedure. They all showed how they genuinely care for their patients. Thank you
Thank you for sharing your feedback. Kind words are always appreciated!
Fantastic experience: I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Shelton. I came to him feeling scared, self-conscious, and emotionally crushed after losing teeth at just 37. Living with a chronic disease that constantly wreaks havoc on my body and my mouth has been devastating — but watching your teeth deteriorate in your own mouth, feeling helpless as it happens, is something I wouldn’t wish on anyone. It’s painful, humiliating, and isolating. You feel like your own body is betraying you, and it’s terrifying to think about the procedures that lie ahead. From the very first appointment, Dr. Shelton changed everything. He is not only an exceptional surgeon — meticulous, precise, and supremely skilled — but also deeply kind, compassionate, and human. Most importantly, he never makes you feel gross, judged, or ashamed for what’s happening. He treats you like a person first, not just a mouth or a “case.” That may sound simple, but it’s rare. And when you’re feeling vulnerable, scared, and exposed, that makes all the difference in the world. I’ve had three procedures with him under anesthesia so far, and every single one has been smooth, safe, and seamless. My recoveries have been fast and manageable, and the results have been incredible. Each time, he takes the time to explain exactly what’s happening, walks me through the process, and genuinely cares about how I feel — physically and emotionally. I have a big surgery coming up after the holidays, and while I was nervous before, I feel completely reassured knowing I’m in Dr. Shelton’s hands. He has a rare gift: combining extraordinary surgical skill with true human empathy. He doesn’t just fix teeth — he restores confidence, dignity, and peace of mind. If you are looking for a surgeon who is not only world-class but also compassionate, patient, and understanding, Dr. Shelton is absolutely the best! He has helped me through one of the most vulnerable, painful, and emotionally difficult experiences of my life, and I will be forever grateful for his care, his kindness, and his incredible talent. With warmth and gratitude, Stephanie P.

Fantastic experience: From the time I walked in the office I was greeted with very friendly staff .

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough about how great the Nurses and Doctors are at this specialty. My procedure was quick and as painless as possible. Dr. Koshgerian gave me solid advice of the best way to handle my situation without forcing a solution. He took the time to explain all of the alternatives and presented what he thought was the best option which made sense to me. Dr. Koshgerian also took the time to explain everything related to my diagnosis. My surgery setting was so relaxing with the nurses and Doctor explaining what they were doing every step of the way. I would highly recommend this practice to anyone needing Oral Surgery.
Thank you for taking time to post a review. We appreciate all feedback and remain committed to providing exceptional care and service.
Fantastic experience: Everybody welcomed me like an old friend. A must admit some trepidation, with three teeth to be removed for implants. The procedure took quite a bit of time, but I felt no pain whatsoever. I was able to drive home, and the bleeding stopped on schedule later in the evening. Although I was offered pain medicine, I did not require anything (even Tylenol). I slept fine , and the next morning was able to eat a normal breakfast. I am extremely satisfied.
Thank you for the kind words. Positive feedback is always encouraging!

Fantastic experience: Alvarado location. The surgical staff was very welcoming. They brought me a blanket and pillow. The assistant stated his years of experience and certification in ACLS. As a long time emergency department clinician, I would say that is an excellent practice. My questions were answered. Post procedure pain was zero. Edema zero. Dr. Koshgerian is very good with patients and creates a relaxing and calming environment. The expense of this procedure is worth every penny when the care is highly competent - safe - exceptional. The results are excellent. Health care of any kind can at times be precarious- but not with this physician! Great experience.
We appreciate your kind words and remain committed to providing excellent care and service!

Fantastic experience: Your company is a well-oiled machine staffed by caring individuals. You all appear to be in motion - no time wasting.

I wish you all success. Thank you one and all, Sincerely, Ron Gerak

Fantastic experience: My husband and I were visiting my son and his twin boys here in La Mesa, California coming from West Virginia when several days into our 3 week trip. I woke up one morning with a sore mouth. Knowing it just wasn't a simple toothache. Doctor Paul Koshgerian, DMD MD and his entire staff were very accommodating and professional.

Fantastic experience: I wish I could give 100 stars! I am incredibly grateful for my experience at the Oral Surgery and Dental Implant Specialists of SD with Dr. Koshgerian. I was quite nervous about needing a bone graft and implant, but the entire staff made me feel comfortable the minute I walked in. The office was clean and Arianna and Kristy greeted me with a smile. Dr. Koshgerian and Mike explained the procedure thoroughly and answered all of my questions. Jess did wonderful job outlining my treatment plan and options. The procedure could not have gone any smoother-- a big thanks to Michelle, who assisted Dr. Koshgerian and gave me clear and concise post-op instructions and extra TLC. Recovery has been smooth with minimal pain and swelling. I would not hesitate to recommend this practice for any oral surgery needs!

Fantastic experience: Dr Koshgerian and his team are WONDERFUL! From that first consultation I knew I was in good hands. I have terrible anxiety and dental procedures make it worse. Dr and his team made sure to address all my concerns and even prescribe some medicine for the morning of before arriving. I genuinely do not remember a single thing except waiting maybe 2 mins in the waiting area and having an IV in. The last thing I heard was something along the lines of “I’m putting the anesthesia in, you’ll start to feel a little-“ and suddenly I was home again he even called me that evening from his personal phone to check on me! It’s day two and I have minimal swelling, pain is easily managed with the meds they prescribed and ice! I cannot recommend them enough!
We appreciate positive feedback and strive to persistently deliver exceptional care and service.
Fantastic experience: They treated my mom very kindly and professionally. Explained the entire procedure thoroughly and what to expect afterward.

Fantastic experience: I came here to resolve a failing implant. I walked in with particular challenges to being anesthetized comfortably during the procedure. Not only did Dr. Shelton and his team listen to me, they came up with a plan that would work for me. They allowed me to have a voice in how to make the procedure go well and came up with alternatives to support my voice. My procedure went fantastic! A year later, my implant looks great, there is no sign of bone loss or any other kind of degradation. Thank you again!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Shelton and the staff at Oral Surgery & Dental Implants showed advanced knowledge and skills in treating my autistic son's wisdom teeth extraction. Dr. Shelton identified a lower tooth with an infection with the other on the way. Dr. Keith Reid handled the anesthesia preparation brilliantly and together removed my son's wisdom teeth without incident or pain. The aftercare is easy to understand and has been crucial to my son's recovery. I recommend Dr. Shelton, Dr. Reid, and the staff at Oral Surgery and Dental implants to anyone.

Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Dr. Shelton. He was exceptionally competent, patient, honest, caring, and a fantastic listener. From the initial consultation to the exam, procedure, and billing, he and his staff were professional and completely transparent. He took the time to educate me about what I needed done, why it was necessary, and all of my options, which really helped me feel informed and at ease. I have anxiety, and he went out of his way to make sure I felt comfortable and supported throughout the entire process — even making himself available outside of office hours when I had questions or concerns. He made it clear that there were no stupid questions, and I truly felt heard and respected every step of the way.

Fantastic experience: The most professional and modern oral surgery offices in San Diego. If you've had bad experiences in the past with other doctors, you can set your worries aside because Dr. Koshgerian and his wonderful team will take great care of you and your needs. My oral surgery operation was quick, painless, and all my needs were taken care of.
Thank you for the kind words. Positive feedback is always encouraging.
Fantastic experience: Having never had any dental extractions before, I was apprehensive about my appointment for the removal of 4 teeth under local anesthetic. However, it turned out to be a day of surprises. Everyone in the office was so supportive as I'm certain they could tell I had fear. But the procedure went so quickly I hardly had time to react. Dr. Koshgerian administered the several injections of anesthetic with absolutely no pain or discomfort. Then, during the 10 or 15 minutes of waiting for the anesthetic to take effect, instead of leaving me alone with my thoughts one of the dental staff stayed with me, engaging me in conversation that distracted and calmed my mind. The actual removal procedure was totally painless and over in a few minutes. Dr. Koshgerian was kind and so personable and kept checking with me to see how I was doing. And then it was over! Could hardly believe it. No bad reaction from any part of the procedure and the instructions given to me afterwards covered any and all questions I had and guided me through the first few days of recovery which also gave me no problems. Cannot say enough good things about this excellent group of surgeons and their wonderful and thoughtful staff.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. Kind words are always appreciated.

Fantastic experience: Dr.Koshgerian and his team were extremely professional and friendly and he was able to put my mind at ease about a front tooth dental implant which many other places lacked confidence in. They were able To get my implant in and refered me to a prosthodontist who helped place a temporary tooth the next day so I did not have to go toothless.. I would reccommend his office and experience
Thank you for taking time to post a review. We appreciate all feedback and remain committed to providing exceptional care and service.
Fantastic experience: I was procrastinating on getting my wisdom teeth out because I wasn’t sure where to go and out of fear of dental surgery. However, I found the Oral Surgery and Dental Implant specialists and their glowing reviews. Dr. Shelton and his team were so easy to communicate with and provided amazing service! I had two bottom wisdom teeth that were completely sideways and they were able to immediately book me to take care of it. Day of the surgery was super quick and easy despite it being my first time under anesthesia. They made sure I was comfortable before and after the operation, in addition to constant check ins during the healing process. I am glad I came to Dr. Shelton and his team, and would definitely recommend coming here if you need to get your wisdom teeth out. The team and dentists here truly care and show it through their service.

Fantastic experience: The Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Specialists of San Diego are the best! Dr. Koshgerian and his team provided the exceptional service they are known for. I walked in a bit nervous but they took great care of me - explaining every little thing they were doing and what to expect - before and after. I could not applaud them enough for their care. My surgery was yesterday morning and I have not been in pain or felt any major side effects, as I expected. My husband is pleasantly surprised and thankful! We are both grateful and highly recommend them! I give them 10 stars!
Thank you for the kind words. Positive feedback is always encouraging.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Koshgerian and Michelle were great. They knew I was nervous (first time under general anesthesia) and were very explanatory and comforting. The procedure went smoothly. Their pre- and post op directions were very clear. We'll see how the recovery goes!
Thank you for the 5-star review! We are glad you chose us.
Fantastic experience: Expert, informative, professional, caring doctor and staff across the board. Dr. Kashgarian has done two extractions and one completed implant for me (second implant pending - both under anesthesia), and both were a breeze under his and his team’s care. Excellent education and communication, both pre and post procedure, to ensure all goes smoothly. I highly recommend him and his practice.
Thank you for the kind words. Positive feedback is always encouraging.
Fantastic experience: Dr. Shelton and the entire team are amazing—professional, kind, and highly skilled! I came in because I had somehow snapped an implant that was originally placed by a different dentist. It didn’t hurt, but it definitely needed surgical repair. Dr. Shelton took care of it, and I was honestly surprised—no pain during or after the procedure! It feels like a bit of bruising, but overall, it was a very smooth experience. Thank you, Dr. Shelton and team! 5 stars!
We appreciate your kind words and remain committed to providing excellent care and service.
Fantastic experience: The efficiency with which you and your office conducts business is very impressive. The pre and post information via videos is brilliant! The supportive atmosphere while you were doing the procedure was reassuring and very calming. Thank you to you and your team!
It was our pleasure to take care of you! Thank you for the wonderful review.

Fantastic experience: A little hard to find. After entering address go all the way back to the right, there they are. Can't say enough good about the consideration, information, treatment, and after care. Had 2 teeth pulled and prepped for implants. Took care of billing, setting up credit for amount not covered under insurance. State of the art equipment and personnel. You can trust Dr. Koshgerion and his staff to have your best interests at heart. This is a top notch organization with an excellent doctor.
Thank you for the 5-star review!
Fantastic experience: We had a wonderful experience with Dr. Koshgerian’s office. Everyone was friendly, professional, and efficient. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an oral surgeon.
It was our pleasure to make your experience as pleasant as possible. Thank you for recommending our practice.
Fantastic experience: I recently had oral surgery with Dr. Paul Koshgerian, DMD, MD. and was genuinely impressed with the entire experience. The surgery went smoothly, and recovery was quicker than i expected. I truly appreciate the excellent care and highly recommend doctor Paul Koshgerian to anyone in need of oral surgery.
Thank you! We appreciate the recommendation. Your kind words have made our day!
Fantastic experience: I volunteer to write this review even though my treatment is not complete as Dr. Paul has only put in the implant two weeks ago and I have to wait for a while before Dr. Paul gives me the green light to get the crown. What impress me most from Dr. Paul is his thoroughness and efficiency or effectiveness or whatever you may call it. He had a treatment plan for me as seen as I consulted with him. He is so convincing that I saw him on Tuesday and got the implant surgery on Thursday. His team had everything ready starting from all the prescribed medications sent to my pharmacy before I even left his office on that Tuesday. All the dosage was clear and there was no need to ask any questions. Since he is an MD in addition to being an implant surgeon, he concurrently administered all the anesthetics himself. Everything went smoothly and I never use any of the pain medication post surgery. In brief he exceeded my expectations in every way. This is my fourth implant and the first one with him. He also comes with a fabulous team at the front desk. They answer all my questions regarding billing and they were 100% correct about what insurance would charge me and they were perfect. Next year I intend to complete my last implant with him. He is also very honest and he repeatedly asks whether there are questions for him. Long live Dr. Paul and his team… He truly understands the meaning of empathy and his team understands that… all of them.
Thank you for the 5-star review!
Fantastic experience: I had seven much needed extractions completed here. From the consultation to post operation I was given very clear information on costs and the procedure. By following the instructions I have experienced very little pain and so far no swelling. I highly recommend The Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Specialist. I hope to not ever need them again but if I do I won't hesitate to call them immediately.
Our pleasure! Glad to hear you had a 5-star experience. Thank you for recommending our practice.
Fantastic experience: Very professional, organized and friendly group of people. The procedure was smooth and painless and aside from being groggy from the anesthesia the recovery was easy as well. I highly recommend this team of skilled and thoughtful professionals!
Our pleasure! Glad to hear you had a 5-star experience. Thank you for recommending our practice.
Negative experience: Get ready to pay $196 for a consultation that they don’t fully disclose. If you’re insurance doesn’t cover a consult, you’ll end up paying the full amount. I got a lovely bill in the mail 4 months after I went in for a second opinion. I paid out of pocket with a “discount” for the CT scan, then an additional $79 dollars toward the consultation. At that point I was already there and I really wanted a second opinion. The person taking my x-ray and sales person, including the surgeon were extremely nice. That’s the only reason why I gave it 2 stars instead of 1. I called to get a reason for the bill and was told my insurance doesn’t cover it. Clearly I was frustrated and was told it’s $196 for a 10 minute consultation because the surgeon “went to school for 12 years and his time is valuable”. I completely understand that time is valuable for other surgeons in the area have free consults and I did pay for the imaging and a portion of the consultation. I ended up going elsewhere. Oh also, they quoted me $3000+ for the implants, they also push sedation, and the place I went to was the same place I have always gone to and paid $1700 for the same procedure with excellent surgeons that also went to school for a long time. So at the end of the day, if you want to go here and get wild quotes and bait and switch tactics come here. Again, might be the finance people here and the doctor has no idea. Either way, it’s a PASS for me.
